today’s world is that of energy sources to power an increasing global demand. Traditionally‚ humans have converted energy from natural resources like coal and natural gas for use. However‚ these sources of energy are both nonrenewable and cause large amounts of pollution. As we progress through the 21st century‚ renewable energy sources like solar and wind energy will see increased use to replace traditional sources. One of these sources‚ wind energy‚ is seeing a rise in development because it is a source

Essay The importance of non-renewable raw materials. Non-renewable resources are resources of economic value that cannot be rapidly replaced by natural means on a level equal to its consumption. They are used on a daily basis for such trivial things as creating electricity‚ heating homes‚ powering vehicles and manufacturing goods. Most of us do not even realise how dependent we are on fossil fuels and metal ores. However‚ they have become an indespensible part of modern technologically advanced

Selection of Topic: Energy Crisis is a shortfall in or interruption to the provision of energy supplies. The planet is progressively marching towards a serious electric energy crisis‚ owing to an escalating desire of electric energy becoming greater than its supply. We have always accepted that the energy we make use of each day is not unrestricted‚ still we take it for granted. Coal‚ petroleum‚ electrical power‚ even water has inadequate availability. Nevertheless‚ we have not taken sufficient

Renewable energy is energy that originates from natural sources‚ which is a continuing and nonpolluting energy that is replenished due to its perpetual natural motion. These sources are commonly solar‚ geothermal‚ wind and tidal energies. Comparing different countries’ use of renewable energies -- in Portugal this year‚ close to 45 percent of its electricity will come from renewable energy sources (Rosenthal‚ 2010). This compared to 10.1 percent in the United States (U.S. Energy Administration
